Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear drum brake dimensions before ordering, including the 228.6 x 41.2mm specification shown in the fitment notes. Compare the existing hardware layout on the vehicle before disassembly so the replacement components match the original drum brake configuration. For best results, inspect the brake shoes, wheel cylinders, and drum surface during service and replace worn parts as needed.
